Lar, I thought you would be interested to know that Kraft have come up with a new type of Vegemite! It's much smoother and creamier than the original. They are having a competition to give it a name! I'm sure you could come up with a few good ones! :wink:

With recent improvements in sewage treatment technology, I can't say I'm shocked that they have a new smoother creamier version of vegemite.
I have often feared that vegemite is really Soylent Green sold under another name.
My only real advice on Vegemite is Vegedon't.

What's the prize from Kraft gunna be? Hmmmmmmm? Ok' I'll try:

1) VegeDON'T
2)Smoothemite-with the new pre-digested formula!
3)VegemiteSmooth- now with real termites!
4)Fecalmite
5)Drekamite(for my Yiddish speaking friends)
6)Soylent brown

250 pound guys do cast large shadows, and have twice the natural gravity of 125 pound guys. Maybe that's why shit seems to stick to me alot?

Being an ex-archaeologist, I would suggest "Coprolite" :D

I dunno. I've tasted the stuff. It tastes much fresher than fossillized dinosaur shit to me. Unless they just rehydrate it or something......

Maybe we should give marketing suggestions too?

Vegemite! The reason the rest of the world makes us Aussies live on a really big island on the far side of the globe!

Vegemite! It's not just for wheel bearings any more!

Vegemite! It puts the "gross" in Grocer!

Vegemite! From the soles of our farmers shoes direct to your breakfast table!

Larry must have been attacked with a tube a Vegemite as a child. This is going beyond dislike of the yummy gummy! It's some sort of distorted, obsessive hatred! He's Vegemite's Kahn, Lex Luthor & Prof. Moriarty, all rolled into one!

Good thing for Obama that you're not a Republican!!!

We were present at the meeting of Larry and Vegemite. In fact, it was mailed to us by a certain sweet lady in Australia, and we took it from Texas as a part of her contribution to the tailgate that she could not attend. Larry will never forgive us. (Talk about being ungrateful for a gift!) Jay has the photographic evidence of the meeting of man and paste. It was a HOOT!!! We'll have to dig it out and post it.
